Specification forming part of Letters Patent N0. 151,704, dated June 9,1874; application filed April '22, 1874.

To all whom it may concern:

y one end with a conic or tapering point, B, and

at the other with tubular screws, C D, of different diameters, and atone side with a coupling branch or induct, E, all being as shown in thesaid drawings. rlhe chamber a of the case A opens through the screws CD, and also through the branch E, the lat-ter being provided with afemale screw, b.

On screwing upon either of the screws a rose or a jet-pipe, and couplinga hose with the branch E, and driving the spur or point B into theearth, such point may be made to support the rose or jet-pipe in avertical or an inclined position while water may be flowing into thecase A, and from thence into and through the jet-pipe or rose.

For gardeners and others the combined jetpipe and hose-supporter will befound to be very useful.

I do not claim a lawn-sprinkler as represented and described in J. E. Joyensons application, filed July 1, 1869, such having no series ofcoupling-screws at its upper part,

whereby jets or roses of different sizes may be applied to it.
